117 Snow Night Strangers
Little Ni frowned and stared at Bai Fuling. He felt that Bai Fuling had something to hide from him, but it didn't matter. Anyway, he would figure out her secrets one day.
"Do you have anything else to know?" Little Ni said with a strange smile.
Bai Fuling thought about it and finally shook her head. In fact, what she wanted to ask was, "What do you have to do with the Demon Cult?" But she didn't think Xiao Ni would tell her such an important thing. The righteous leader of the martial arts world, Hai Fu Shi, actually had a major connection with the Demon Cult. Who would believe it if she said it?
"It's really gone?" Xiao Ni confirmed.
"What do you want to do?" Bai Fuling became alert, but it was too late. The scenery in front of her quickly blurred. Her hand holding Xiao Lihua loosened, and the person fell backwards on the bed.
The little raccoon was also unconscious and limp like his master, rolling aside.
Little Ni jumped onto the bed, reached out and gently described Bai Fuling's delicate eyebrows and eyes, and smiled softly: "Sleep well, wake up and forget everything you should forget. When the matter in the capital is over, I will naturally explain my affairs to you completely."
Bai Fuling closed her eyes and breathed slowly and lightly, and obviously she had fallen asleep.
In the evening, Bai Fuling woke up in a daze, vaguely remembering that he had sent his parents away, then returned to the room, and then fell asleep, not knowing that the most important piece was missing in his memory.
Now there are only more than ten days left before the New Year, and it is the busiest time for people. The government and business villas in the Yunque Mountain area are quietly uninhabited. Bai Fuling can finally rest assured [31 Novel Network �
The Ning'an River has made great progress in buying people these days. More than 200 people have been bought, including a total of 40 households, plus 62 orphans and adult men and women separated from their relatives.
The whole family was placed in other branches of the Bai family, and the other 62 people who had no relatives and no reason were sent to the village of Bai Shu. The houses in the village were vacant because a group of people were released, which happened to be used to resettle the sixty-two newcomers.
Bai Fuling counted the body sales contracts delivered from various places, and saw that the goal of ten thousand people was getting closer and closer, and his mood was getting better and better day by day.
The closer the New Year, the colder the weather is. Bai Fuling is slowly unwilling to go out and stays in the other yard every day. Little Ni is missing all day long, and she is just happy to be quiet.
On that day, an old man brought two servants to knock on the door, saying that he was passing by here and encountered heavy snow, and he couldn't think of staying at home. Bai Fuling thought that there were dozens of his own guards living in the yard. An old man and two servants could not do anything even if he was a bad person, so he agreed without saying anything.
During dinner, Yang Mei came over and said, "The old man said he would come to thank the lady, thank you for your mercy."
Bai Fuling was bored when she stayed in the house every day, so she simply went to meet the guests in front.
The old man is about sixty years old, dressed simply and cleanly, behaves well, has a tall and elegant figure, has a very beautiful facial features, and is a handsome... The strangest thing about the old man is that Bai Fuling always looks familiar when he looks at his face.
This old man is not young, but he is energetic, with bright eyes and gentle spirit, but his temperament is clearly something that only those who have been in the upper class for a long time will have.
As soon as he came up, he thanked Bai Fuling repeatedly politely. Bai Fuling didn't dare to be arrogant. It was close to the capital, and the people coming and going could have a few "turtles" and their relatives from far away. It would be better to be careful if you have nothing to do.
After sitting down, the old man naturally started to talk about his family: "It's a coincidence that my husband's surname is Bai. He was originally from Taizhou and now lives in the capital. Because he was separated from his own son in his early years, he has been unable to find him. Recently, he heard about my son, so he hurriedly came to search. Unexpectedly, he encountered this heavy snow when he was not found. There were only a few guards and guards nearby, so he didn't dare to take in the master and servant. Fortunately, he met the lady, otherwise I would have had a big trouble."
The snowy night was bored, and the other party was an old man who was easily affectionate. Bai Fuling also gave up his guard and smiled and said, "Grandpa, don't be polite. Do your son have any characteristics? Does he live nearby? If it is convenient, you might as well inform me that the weather will be better next day, so that my family can find it for you."
Mr. Bai sighed and said, "He left me when he was three years old. I only remember that he looked like his dead mother, and there was a star-shaped vermilion birthmark behind his waist."
"That's it..." Bai Fuling had no choice. God knows what this old man's wife looks like?!
Mr. Bai had a desire to talk to himself and said to himself: "It's because I'm sorry for him. When the old man brought his wife and children to Beijing for the exam, he not only failed the exam, but also got seriously ill, and used up all his savings. Seeing that he had no money to buy medicine and eat, the wife had no choice but to secretly sell her son to a childless couple for ten taels of silver. With the ten taels of silver and the wife's careful care, I finally survived."
"When I woke up, I found that my son was not seen. The lady was afraid that I would be in a state of anger and was so hurt. She said that she was unable to take care of her. She asked her son to take care of her in a temple outside the city for a while. She did not doubt that she had him, but only told her to visit her more. When she was in good health, she could get up and walk. It was already three months later. I asked the lady to pick up her son together. The lady knew that she could not hide it anymore, so she cried and told the truth."
"The wife suffered so much for my husband's illness and sold her son to others. I guess she felt a lot more painful than me. It was all because of my husband's lack of strength. How could I bear to blame her? We wanted to find the old couple and beg them to return their son to us. I was willing to pay ten times the price to redeem it. As a result, the old couple had long been unaware of where to move. We thought they didn't want us to return their son, so they rely on my son to inherit the incense and would definitely not abuse him. So we also held back our longing and asked someone to search everywhere, while staying in the capital to work and study, preparing for the next exam."
"Three years later, I finally got my wish and went to the list. From then on, my career was successful. My wife had two sons for me, but we always felt ashamed of our eldest son and our longing for him became stronger and stronger. I sent people to investigate the whereabouts of the old couple, and finally found them, but... but..."
Mr. Bai became more and more excited as he spoke, and his voice became choked. Bai Fuling felt strange in his heart. It was just the first time she met the old man. He told her private affairs so clearly and meticulously. Isn’t it a bit too strange?
Ginkgo, who was just listening to the deaf, couldn't help but urge, "What's wrong with that old couple?"
Mr. Bai said tremblingly: "The old couple was originally accomplices of a group of human traffickers. They specialize in the name of adopting boys inheriting incense, cheating those poor people who cannot survive and sell their sons to them! I'm sorry, my son has been sold by them, and I don't know where he has left..."
The ancients favored boys over girls and refused to sell their sons until they were desperate. Even if they were sold, there was a difference in where they went. Selling them to old couples who had already died is the best way out. Not only will they not have to worry about food and clothing, nor will they have to become slaves or become slaves. They are lucky enough to become rich young masters and enjoy a large amount of property. But if they were sold to ordinary human traffickers, it would be a life-threatening life and life would be absolutely better. Some of them were sold as slaves, and the worse were instigated to become thieves or even sold to workshops to work hard until death. Using the excuse of inheriting incense, it is most likely to deceive poor families into selling their sons at a relatively low price. Some even ask for a way out for their sons, and there is also some money they don’t charge.
Bai Fuling has been buying people all year round, so she naturally knows the truth. After hearing Mr. Bai say this, she understands in her heart that his son is in danger. However, he just said that there is news about his son. If the old man was not too old, she would almost doubt whether his son would have bumped into her hand with great luck?
But it is not right. Judging from Mr. Bai's age, his son is at least thirty years old and was only three years old when he was sold. So how could it be at least two or three years ago? It happened thirty years ago, and her parents were still furious at that time!
However, it is not ruled out that they were sold to her house a few times. For example, there are some male servants in their thirties and forties, and even elderly people in their twenties and seventies in their twenties.
"Grandpa, there is a small mountain village nearby, and there are many outsiders living in it. Maybe your son is there. If you haven't found it there, you might as well wait until the weather clears tomorrow. I'll let my family accompany you for a walk." Bai Fuling said.
"Thank you, Miss Bai. I have a good idea of my son's whereabouts. If I can't find it, I will definitely go to the village I mentioned. I am just worried now that my son has suffered so much over the years. If I have resentment or don't want to recognize me, then...ah..." Mr. Bai looked sad and nervous, and seemed to be very entangled about this matter.
"You sincerely ask him for forgiveness and explain the matter clearly. It is difficult to force others. Maybe he has been doing well over the years and will not care about these past events." Bai Fuling advised with reservations.
If someone else had changed, he would definitely say something like "There are all parents in the world" and "You are forced to be helpless, and it is understandable" to comfort him. However, Bai Fuling has seen too many children sold by her parents, and this kind of "Holy Mother" words cannot be said.
"Understanding" is easy, but if you haven't experienced such a tragic experience, how can you truly understand the despair and helplessness of being betrayed by your relatives? How can you understand the fear and despair of being beaten and ravaged day and night, and the fear of being in danger of being lost?
Mr. Bai's expression was a little strange, and he seemed a little disappointed and there was something else. Bai Fuling saw it and felt very strange in her heart. Could it be that she said that his son would forgive him and that this matter would come true?
Does she have such great influence? She is not really boundless in Buddhism, tsk.
